      They didn’t kick out that minority who ran racist businesses, they kicked out all the 288k people who reneged on their “duty” to go kill ukrainians and die for putin’s aspirations.

        That’s a wrong amount. Real figure is unknown, though surely much lower. Check the article.

      This is so confusing, are we for or against racism?

            It may be a conversation worth having in a 1 to 1, but internet denizens crave hate and hate as much as they can when they can.

            Usually I get downvoted for “let’s come together” comments that say things like all Israelis and Russians shouldn’t die in a fire, because they are not all bad, when people are calling for culling them. The internet is weird.

              It’s Russian people who allow Putin to commit his shit

              It’s Israelis who allow their government commit the shit

                It’s the Mongols who allowed Ghengis Khan to commit his shit.

                Uh oh, now you should be worried considering his lineage is in most of us. Those damn Mongol ancestors of yours. Why were your ancestors so complicit in the rape and pillage of continents? I think that makes you complicit, too, by your logic.

          It’s not “few” orcs that have crossed the border to Ukraine. It’s not “few” orcs celebrating the ethnic cleansing of Ukraine. It’s the collaborative efforts of a nation

            Should i blame you because your government openly support genocide in gaza? I could but we both know that the government and people in power are the ones to blame, most people are feed up on the propaganda these criminals spread to gain wealth and power.

        Russian is not a race.

        Orcs are a race, but they’re fictional.

      Well if they’re gonna have to participate in fighting, perhaps they’re smart to choose the better equipped army who are “fighting” unarmed and malnourished children in an open-air prison.

      The moral thing would be to not participate in either, ofc.

      I’m just pointing out I can see the logic they used.

    I was going to say that I preferred them to stay in Sri Lanka, at least they would not become more soldiers for Putin… But moving there and then creating “whites only bars” 🤦, yeah, Sri Lanka is right in kicking them.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Sri Lanka has told hundreds of thousands of Russians and some Ukrainians staying in the country to escape the war that they must leave in the next two weeks, immigration officers said.

    The immigration controller issued a notice to the tourism ministry asking Russian and Ukrainian people staying on extended tourist visas to leave Sri Lanka within two weeks from 23 February.

    The president’s office said that the notice had been issued without prior cabinet approval and the government had not officially decided to revoke the visa extensions, reported the Sri Lankan newspaper Daily Mirror.

    However, concerns have been raised over thousands of Russians and a smaller number of Ukrainians staying in the country for an extended period of time and even setting up their own restaurants and nightclubs.

    Tourism minister Harin Fernando told Daily Mirror that the ministry has been receiving complaints of some Russian tourists running unregistered and illegal businesses in the southern part of the country.

    In a bid to boost tourism and recover from its worst economic crisis since 2022, Sri Lanka began granting 30-days visas on arrival and extensions for up to six months.


    The original article contains 358 words, the summary contains 189 words. Saved 47%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

      You know their economy basically collapsed in 2022, right? They’re still recovering.
